Liverpool are ready to turn their attentions to strengthening their defence
after completing the £25 million transfer of Adam Lallana from Southampton
and making progress on moves for other attacking targets.

Brendan Rodgers wants Dejan Lovren to become the third Southampton player to
move to Anfield this summer, after Lallana and Rickie Lambert. The Liverpool
manager is also hoping to strike a deal with Chelsea for Ryan Bertrand after
becoming frustrated with Seville’s refusal to lower their £20 million asking
price for Alberto Moreno.
